Adding the ability to send messages back into LiveCode is something we're currently hoping to get working in December or January. It will be a bit more involved than the "do as JavaScript" feature. I made some comments about it here: https://www.mail-archive.com/use-livecode@lists.runrev.com/msg8060...

Ah, sorry. By "this" I am referring to the problems with MCCodeunitEvalIsAmongTheCodeunitsOf and MCNothingEvalIsNothingEqualsToNothing . Did you file a bug about the problems with resource files? I don't think that anything was changed that would affect resource files, but probably something subtle ...

I spent a while looking into this today and it looks like fixing this would require rather extensive changes to the way that LiveCode Builder code is compiled and loaded. Unfortunately it means that LiveCode 8.1 and LiveCode 9 modules are going to be incompatible. We should bump the module version f...

It fills a very important niche: a language that can be used to do many of the things that we would previously use C++ to do, but which has similar accessible syntax to LiveCode Scrip...

Okay, I have done some quick tests locally. Can you please confirm which edition of LiveCode 9 DP 2 you're using? The following works fine for me (Community edition, Firefox 49.0 running on Fedora 24): if the platform is "HTML5" then do "document.title" as "JavaScript" put the result into field 1 en...

I've drafted a blog post that gives a worked example of using this new capability to manipulate the document surrounding the HTML5 app, and we're currently hoping to publish it tomorrow. I wonder what's going on with the XMLHttpRequest? This could be a problem for anyone trying to make a liburl back...

I think this is failing because you are trying to do a synchronous fetch using an asynchronous API. When you call "LoadXMLDoc()", it creates and sends the HTTP request -- and then returns to LiveCode. The result of calling "LoadXMLDoc()" is empty. A bit later, when the HTTP request completes, it cal...
